For your home

• Our comprehensive homeowners’ policy is designed for those whose residences have a replacement cost in excess of $1 million:
• You may require more — or less — coverage than your friends and neighbors. We’ll work with you to provide limits that meet your precise needs.
  
• Some of the most beautiful homes are also the hardest to insure. Whether you reside on the coast, in the mountains, in a gated community or all of the above, Private Client Group has the ability to handle complex insurance needs.
  
• Coverage is provided for landscaping, breakage of fragile items, and damage caused by domestic pets.

In the unfortunate event of property damage, additional policy provisions are intended to facilitate the handling of your claim:

• In many instances, we can rebuild on-site to match your home's exceptional building quality, even if doing so exceeds your policy limit.
  
• If you prefer, claims can be settled in cash without any obligation to replace lost items or repair damaged property.
  
• Damaged personal property can be repaired or replaced with new item(s), without deductions for depreciation.
  
• Additional living expenses will be made available if your home becomes uninhabitable after a loss.

You also may add any of our optional coverage enhancements to your policy, including:

• Equipment breakdown — Homes today are being built with more mechanical, electrical and electronic equipment than ever before. This optional add-on covers the costs to repair or replace critical home equipment due to breakdown.
  
• Fraud SafeGuard — Personal financial loss can come in many forms: identity theft, investment schemes, dishonest advisors, forgery, etc. Coverage is available to help protect you and your family.
  
• Household SafeGuard — This coverage applies to physical and mental recovery following a traumatic covered event, such as kidnapping, abduction, home invasion, mugging, and car-jacking or hijacking.
  
• Flood coverage — This valuable protection is excluded from standard homeowners’ policies. Many of our coverage features are broader than what can be obtained through the National Flood Program Insurance.
  
• Green Rebuilding Cost — Covers the cost to restore, repair or replace damaged property and contents of your home with "green" materials.

Private Client Group’s insurance offerings are competitively priced, which means you can get exponentially better coverage without an exponential increase in price.

Some people prefer to assume more risk than others. Electing to pay a higher deductible may substantially reduce your annual premium. Choose from a range of deductible options, up to $100,000. Please note: this premise also applies to separate hurricane or wind and hail deductibles in storm-prone areas like Florida.

Having insurance that replaces your home in a disaster is reassuring. Not losing your home and irreplaceable possessions in a disaster is even better.

Wildfire Protection Unit®
We are the only insurance provider to offer this unparalleled and complimentary service. Wildfire mitigation specialists can visit your home and assess its vulnerability. If needed, we’ll spray the brush around your property with the same powerful yet safe fire retardant used by the U.S. Forest Service. In addition, emergency response units are dispatched automatically if an active wildfire threatens your home. (Available in select parts of CA and CO.)

Hurricane Protection Unit®
Our Hurricane Protection Unit provides hands-on help when you need it most. Our specialists can conduct an in-depth, on-site evaluation and map out suggestions to maximize your preparedness well in advance of hurricane season. We closely track the projected landfall of approaching storms and identify the homes that are likely to be most vulnerable. After landfall, our team will be on hand to assess exterior damage.¹ (Available in select parts of FL, MA, NJ, NY and SC.)

Emergency preparedness services
Upon request, Private Client Group policyholders can receive a 360° safety and security assessment. These complimentary and customized consultations are designed to reduce threats to family safety, security and personal wealth.

Background Checks
Full-time domestic staff can help keep family and valuables out of harm’s way. However, it’s imperative to confirm that those with access to your family and property are both qualified and credible. Use this complimentary resource to screen nannies, housekeepers, drivers, gardeners, chefs, home health workers, private financial advisors and contractors who will have extended access to your residence.

Personal Security Consultations
Confidential personal security services can help minimize threats to your family, home and belongings. Security services for special events, electronic identity protection, and alarm system planning and design are just a few of our offerings.

Residential Engineering Services
Large estates often are built with complex electrical, heating and plumbing systems that are comparable to commercial properties. Our engineering expert can conduct an in-depth examination to detect frequent causes of property damage before they have a chance to escalate. An infrared camera also may be used to reveal temperature variations behind walls or ceilings that are undetectable to the naked eye. These irregularities can indicate overheating electrical systems or moisture due to a leak or mold.

Architectural Legacy Services
Private Client Group policyholders have exclusive access to our Architectural Legacy Services, a team of risk management specialists with expertise in historic preservation and architectural history. We can advise on loss prevention, documentation, or rebuilding and renovation projects specific to your unique historic home.
